Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by noneGeorgia Very comfortable and clean. Service was great.
Great place to stay. Exceeded my expectations. I worked at Merrill Lynch in Princeton and was pleased to find out that the Holliday Inn Express was the same property. Felt like Home.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by SBB04 Great hotel - annoying web site
I've been timed out of the web site three times in an attempt to write a review, so I'll hurry.
I took the time to compose a thoughtful, detailed review of my one-night stay at this lovely hotel... but as I was typing... the 'session timed out' and the entire review was lost. I'm not retyping it... so suffice it to say...
The hotel was comfortable, clean and serenely suggested to relax. I was there there visiting in the area and next time, I'll stay at the hotel longer. The staff was pleasant and professional. The sleeping room was comfortable and very clean. The breakfast selection was good as was the quality. I didn't have time to try the pancakes but they were a seemingly nice change from the usual waffles in other hotels.
The two negatives...
Poor street signage and with the exact address in the GPS, I ended up at the Crowne Plaza Princeton. I back-tracked and found a very small sign for Holiday Inn Express. I don't know if the parking lots connect because the entrances were a few blocks apart. Adding the the confusion, when I turned on the tv, it welcomed me to the "Crowne Plaza Princeton." When I checked out, I mentioned that to the front desk staff member and he said they share their tv service with the Crown Plaza and were trying to get a splitter. Neither hotel is in Princeton...they're in Plainsboro but I understand hotels try to identify with recognizeable towns/cities.
The other issue was a small parking lot with very few handicapped spaces. I returned at midnight and got the last spot in the lot. Unfortunately, a very inconsiderate guest with a large van/RV parked horizontal across four spaces!!! I did tell the staff about it when I regained my breath after pulling my luggage the length of the parking lot and into the hotel. I hope they figured out who the guest was and made them aware of their rudeness.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by phillie113 Manager and Staff can't be beat
I am back after checking out on June 15, 2015. Today is July 7 2015. I have a sick Mother-in-Law in which she may be with the Lord soon. I made a reservation for July 6, 2015 and then the wife ask's if we can make it sooner. ( Remember, Happy Wife, Happy Life ) So I changed the reservation to July 5th. We arrive and stay the 1st night. My wife goes to her Mother's, and gives me a call, and asks if we leave Saturday July 11th. I go downstairs to see Tina. Tina changes the reservation. So, we are staying for 5 days instead of 7, Now we have to make another reservation for the end of the Month. Today she called me 3, thats Three times to change reservations for the end of the month. EVERY time I go to the front desk, Rob, Tina or Manager Ann is always there to greet you with a smile and are always willing to Help. I have 1 more request in which I need to speak to Manager Ann about...
That is if I last until then. :)
